99'FT: Arsenal 4-2 Leicester. Arsenal seemed to have everything under control, with Martinelli and Trossard putting the Gunners up 2-0 in the first half, and the Foxes unable to respond in any way. However, a reinvented Leicester found their way back into the game with a brace from James Justin. Leandro Trossard was the hero for the Gunners, sealing the win at the death. His goal touched Ndidi on the way to beat a mighty Hermansen at the 98'. Havertz joined the party by adding a fourth on stoppage
